Troubleshooting
If you have problems operating your detector, the suggestions
in this section might help. If you cannot solve the problem after
trying these suggestions, take your detector to your local
RadioShack store for assistance.
Problem Suggestion
The detector does not turn
on.
Be sure all power connections are
secure.
The cigarette-lighter socket might be
dirty. Clean it with fine emery cloth to
ensure a good, clean connection.
Check the fuse in the power cord's
cigarette lighter plug. See “Replacing
the Fuse” on Page 26.
Check the fuse that controls power to
your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket.
See your vehicle's owner's manual.
Caution
: Do not place any metal object other than the cigarette
lighter or cigarette-lighter plug in the cigarette-lighter socket. Doing so
could blow a fuse in your vehicle or cause the metal object to become
very hot.
